2 - Al-Baqara

سَلْ بَـنِىْۗ اِسْرَاۗءِيْلَ كَمْ اٰتَيْنٰھُمْ مِّنْ اٰيَۃٍؚبَيِّنَۃٍ۝۰ۭ وَمَنْ يُّبَدِّلْ نِعْمَۃَ اللہِ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَاۗءَتْہُ فَاِنَّ اللہَ شَدِيْدُ الْعِقَابِ۝۲۱۱
Sal banee israeela kam ataynahum min ayatin bayyinatin waman yubaddil niAAmata Allahi min baAAdi ma jaathu fainna Allaha shadeedu alAAiqabi

English

Ahmed Ali

Ask the children of Israel how many a clear sign We had given them. But if one changes the favour of God after having received it, then remember, God is severe in revenge.

211

زُيِّنَ لِلَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوا الْحَيٰوۃُ الدُّنْيَا وَيَسْخَرُوْنَ مِنَ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا۝۰ۘ وَالَّذِيْنَ اتَّقَوْا فَوْقَہُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَۃِ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ يَرْزُقُ مَنْ يَّشَاۗءُ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ۝۲۱۲
Zuyyina lillatheena kafaroo alhayatu alddunya wayaskharoona mina allatheena amanoo waallatheena ittaqaw fawqahum yawma alqiyamati waAllahu yarzuqu man yashao bighayri hisabin

English

Ahmed Ali

Enamoured are the unbelievers of the life of this world, and scoff at the faithful. But those who keep from evil and follow the straight path will have a higher place than they on the Day of Reckoning; for God gives in measure without number whomsoever He will.

212

كَانَ النَّاسُ اُمَّۃً وَّاحِدَۃً۝۰ۣ فَبَعَثَ اللہُ النَّبِيّٖنَ مُبَشِّرِيْنَ وَمُنْذِرِيْنَ۝۰۠ وَاَنْزَلَ مَعَہُمُ الْكِتٰبَ بِالْحَقِّ لِــيَحْكُمَ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ فِـيْمَا اخْتَلَفُوْا فِيْہِ۝۰ۭ وَمَا اخْتَلَفَ فِيْہِ اِلَّا الَّذِيْنَ اُوْتُوْہُ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَاۗءَتْہُمُ الْبَيِّنٰتُ بَغْيًۢا بَيْنَہُمْ۝۰ۚ فَہَدَى اللہُ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لِمَا اخْتَلَفُوْا فِيْہِ مِنَ الْحَقِّ بِـاِذْنِہٖ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ يَہْدِيْ مَنْ يَّشَاۗءُ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَـقِيْمٍ۝۲۱۳
Kana alnnasu ommatan wahidatan fabaAAatha Allahu alnnabiyyeena mubashshireena wamunthireena waanzala maAAahumu alkitaba bialhaqqi liyahkuma bayna alnnasi feema ikhtalafoo feehi wama ikhtalafa feehi illa allatheena ootoohu min baAAdi ma jaathumu albayyinatu baghyan baynahum fahada Allahu allatheena amanoo lima ikhtalafoo feehi mina alhaqqi biithnihi waAllahu yahdee man yashao ila siratin mustaqeemin

English

Ahmed Ali

Men belonged to a single community, and God sent them messengers to give them happy tidings and warnings, and sent the Book with them containing the truth to judge between them in matters of dispute; but only those who received it differed after receiving clear proofs, on account of waywardness (and jealousies) among them. Then God by His dispensation showed those who believed the way to the truth about which they were differing; for God shows whom He please the path that is straight.

213

اَمْ حَسِبْتُمْ اَنْ تَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّۃَ وَلَمَّا يَاْتِكُمْ مَّثَلُ الَّذِيْنَ خَلَوْا مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ۝۰ۭ مَسَّتْہُمُ الْبَاْسَاۗءُ وَالضَّرَّاۗءُ وَزُلْزِلُوْا حَتّٰى يَقُوْلَ الرَّسُوْلُ وَالَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا مَعَہٗ مَتٰى نَصْرُ اؘ۝۰ۭ اَلَاۗ اِنَّ نَصْرَ اللہِ قَرِيْبٌ۝۲۱۴
Am hasibtum an tadkhuloo aljannata walamma yatikum mathalu allatheena khalaw min qablikum massathumu albasao waalddarrao wazulziloo hatta yaqoola alrrasoolu waallatheena amanoo maAAahu mata nasru Allahi ala inna nasra Allahi qareebun

English

Ahmed Ali

Do you think you will find your way to Paradise even though you have not known what the others before you have gone through? They had suffered affliction and loss, and were shaken and tossed about so that even the Apostle had to cry out with his followers: "When will the help of God arrive?" Remember, the help of God is ever at hand.

214

يَسْــَٔـلُوْنَكَ مَاذَا يُنْفِقُوْنَ۝۰ۥۭ قُلْ مَاۗ اَنْفَقْتُمْ مِّنْ خَيْرٍ فَلِلْوَالِدَيْنِ وَالْاَقْرَبِيْنَ وَالْيَتٰمٰى وَالْمَسٰكِيْنِ وَابْنِ السَّبِيْلِ۝۰ۭ وَمَا تَفْعَلُوْا مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَاِنَّ اللہَ بِہٖ عَلِيْمٌ۝۲۱۵
Yasaloonaka matha yunfiqoona qul ma anfaqtum min khayrin falilwalidayni waalaqrabeena waalyatama waalmasakeeni waibni alssabeeli wama tafAAaloo min khayrin fainna Allaha bihi AAaleemun

English

Ahmed Ali

They ask you of what they should give in charity. Tell them: "What you can spare of your wealth as should benefit the parents, the relatives, the orphans, the needy, the wayfarers, for God is not unaware of the good deeds that you do."

215

كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْقِتَالُ وَھُوَكُرْہٌ لَّكُمْ۝۰ۚ وَعَسٰۗى اَنْ تَكْرَھُوْا شَـيْـــًٔـا وَّھُوَخَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ۝۰ۚ وَعَسٰۗى اَنْ تُحِبُّوْا شَـيْـــــًٔـا وَّھُوَشَرٌّ لَّكُمْ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ يَعْلَمُ وَاَنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ۝۲۱۶ۧ
Kutiba AAalaykumu alqitalu wahuwa kurhun lakum waAAasa an takrahoo shayan wahuwa khayrun lakum waAAasa an tuhibboo shayan wahuwa sharrun lakum waAllahu yaAAlamu waantum la taAAlamoona

English

Ahmed Ali

Enjoined on you is fighting, and this you abhor. You may dislike a thing yet it may be good for you; or a thing may haply please you but may be bad for you. Only God has knowledge, and you do not know.
